Leaked: England Return to Navy Crest for Euro 2024

England's football team are set to return to their historic dark navy crest on their home kit for Euro 2024 - no, after we already showed the full design, we can leak a close-up image of the crest.

Big thanks to Jerseum for the great pictures of the classic England kits, Football Kit Archive for the fantastic overview of England kits, and PFJ for the gigh-quality image of the 2024 crest.

England Euro 2024 Crest - Comeback of Navy

The navy England Euro 2024 crest color is a throwback to the team's first-ever football shirt from 1872 and the country's traditional kits in general.

There have been various colors of the Three Lions crest over the years, including even a red variant for Umbro's 2012 kit. Indeed, the navy color is almost identical to the color of the 150-year anniversary kit by Nike, released in 2013. In contrast, the 2022 World Cup kit featured a dark navy swoosh, but a bright England crest.

However, the Nike England Euro 2024 kit is not fully classic. Nike incorporate little colorful detailing on the sleeve cuffs (navy-blue-red-pinkish-red) and the back collar, in the form of a multicolor cross.
